The Legend

So, after riding Steel Curtain, here is a FULLY updated list. I finally updated creds further down the list as I had been neglecting that. I also moved Voyage above Wildfire because it just felt right. RFII has fully dropped from my Top 30. The ride, while good, just doesn't hold up like it used to. MF is back in my Top 30 after hanging out just outside of it for a minute. This may move again by end of year because I'll be getting MaxxForce and a week from now Storm Chaser and Voyage once more.

Great list @Snoo; I just looked back at the last list you posted in this thread, and it would seem some very significant changes have occurred! In particular, Ravine Flyer II moving from #14 to out of your top 30 entirely surprises me; did you get a really bad reride recently or something?

Also, I must admit that I'm surprised to see Millennium Force in there, as I was under the impression it was a very floater-based ride akin to many B&M hypers like Mako, Goliath SFOG and that sort of thing, which I didn't think you were a huge fan of?

RFII has just not popped like it used to. The ride is still good and I'd still slot it down in the 30-35 range but the roughness took over. As I said before, I haven't really had the time to look through my lower tier list and experiences like that have been overlooked. As far as Millennium Force, it's still a great ride and I really don't appreciate it in my rankings as much as I truly feel. The drop is great, the G's are great, even the floater (much better then Mako ), and the experience is still very unique. Plus, I've been riding it for 20 years and still like it. Says alot about it personally and I couldn't let that puppy slip.

When will everyone just adapt the restraints that are on Mack Megas/B&M hypers/Taron - clearly you can be held in by your thighs without needing anything over your shins or shoulders, and it's so much comfier for tall people. I think half of the reason Helix and Taron are right at the top of my top ten is just how comfortable they are, it's been a while since I went on Twisted Colossus, does that have those horrible shin grips? They ruined a lot of my rides on Steel Vengeance.

For Taron's cars, I've heard some people say that they lack body support and put you in an odd position, making the ejector uncomfortable. With regards to B&M hypers, I also find them ridiculously comfortable, but a number of people say that they are very uncomfortable and hurt a lot, especially those on the larger side. I've heard a fair few cite large thighs as their reason for not liking B&M hyper restraints, so maybe it's a similar problem to the RMC restraints?
